AFC Bournemouth - Newcastle United predictions

Predicting which side will win this match based on odds alone is a complete toss-up. We would say the hosts have a bit of an advantage, but their success is by no means assured.

The 3.01 away win betting odds indicate that Newcastle United are the underdogs of this matchup. The difference is not huge, though, so both a victory for the visitors and are draw are still on the table.

The hosts easily won their previous Premier League engagement thanks to an early lead and the support of their home fans at the Vitality Stadium. Premier League betting odds favoured them from the get-go, but the match was far from one-sided even though they spent most of its runtime in the lead.

Things turned out rather well for The Magpies the last time they played against Wolverhampton Wanderers. An early lead led them straight into a clear 1:0 victory, although it is a close result considering they were strong favourites going in.

AFC Bournemouth are hoping to continue their winning streak. After 3 consecutive wins, they might just do that against The Magpies. Top bookmakers online definitely believe so and we tend to agree.

The initial few rounds of the season were fairly fruitful for the hosts, who are placed 4th in the standings. Staying there until the end will be difficult, though, as will earning 3 points in this match on Sunday.

Although we’re still very early in the season, the Premier League’s leading table positions are already highly contested. The Magpies are placed at 10th, which definitely leaves room for improvement. A victory at AFC Bournemouth would be a great move in the right direction, considering it’s not exactly an easy matchup.

Looking back at the head-to-head history of this matchup, it’s understandable why most bookmakers online decided to price a home win at 2.39. They soundly defeated Newcastle last season, and it’s reasonable to expect another triumph.

With no injuries or suspensions to deal with, both teams will be able to give their all this Sunday.

And Under 2.5 Goals is the perfect wager for this fixture. A quick glance at these teams’ statistics will tell you all you need to know about their concession rates, which is why it’s a fairly safe bet, generally priced at around 2.03.
